16:21 <Thelema5> A bit rainy?
16:22 <Schism> No, 94 plus humidity.

16:26 <Stormspark> I don't think Equestria is a continent
16:26 <Stormspark> I think it's a peninsula
16:26 <Stormspark> I think it's a much smaller part of the world than anyone thought
16:27 <Schism> One thing's for certain: it's near a great big sea.
16:27 <Schism> After all, a land of ponies needs to have a mare. o3o
16:27 <Stormspark> Yeah they roughly based the geography on the US + Canada
16:27 <Stormspark> but I don't think it's actually anywhere near that big
16:27 *** Joins: cabbage (cabbage@Pony-pf8tkn.dynamic.fusionbroadband.com)
16:27 <Stormspark> and the movie showed the world is a MUCH MUCH bigger place
16:29 <Stormspark> even the map makes it look like a large peninsula
16:29 <Schism> But ah, does the world rest on the backs of four ponies who are, in turn, on a giant turtle?
16:30 <Schism> ("Tortoise." "Whatever."
16:30 <Schism> Er, ). Heh.
16:30 <Stormspark> the other possibility is, it is larger, but their trains are a heck of a lot faster than they appear to be (which granted, they could be because magic)
16:30 <Schism> Remember how in the first season or two, the trains were actually pulled by ponies?
16:31 <Stormspark> if you assume the map is to scale, then the Crystal Empire is about 1500 miles
16:31 <Stormspark> yeah
16:31 <Stormspark> *1500 miles away
16:32 <Stormspark> BUT that is assuming NOrth America scale for what appears to be a peninsula
16:32 <Stormspark> and they've said the map is more an artistic representation and not to scale
16:34 <Stormspark> anyway
16:34 <Stormspark> it makes far more sense, with what we know in the story, for it to be a peninsula about the size of the US, rather than a continent the size of North America

17:34 <ADragonDreaming> what's with that translation
17:35 <Schism> I have no clue, but that smug grin does sort of fit the name.
17:35 <Schism> And the pose.
17:35 <ADragonDreaming> is 227 the latest chapter you've found?
17:36 <Schism> Yeah, I'm pretty sure Webtoons reciprocates the author, so it's the best source for the most recent chapters.
17:36 <Schism> authors, even.
17:37 <Schism> And hey, the chapters are all in a single vertical-scroll format, which is nicer than the page slicing.

17:43 * Schism eyebrows at a certain manga about mahjong. "Really, a tenhou? Every month it seems they have to come up with some way to prolong things."
17:43 <Thelema5> Quite a bit, DashedRainbows. No more nausea, just need to get my strength back up. All I've I eaten in past two days was one egg, half a bowl of chickenless soup, and half a bowl of vegetable barely soup
17:43 <Thelema5> How are you feeling, DashedRainbows?
17:44 * Schism offers Thelema5 a hug. "Barely soup is the worst soup. You should have stews, but on the other hand, it's so hot..."
17:44 <DashedRainbows> Bleh, Thelema5
17:44 <Schism> (Barely soup is broth with, like, one piece of corn mixed in.)
17:44 <Thelema5> Heh. I meant barley
17:44 <Schism> I know, but couldn't resist.
17:45 <Thelema5> :P
17:45 * DashedRainbows rolls around
17:46 <Schism> I've admittedly had some slices of thickened barley and vegetable soup, sliced up and fried on the griddle.
17:46 <Thelema5> Interesting
17:46 <Thelema5> Was it good?
17:47 <Schism> Ehh, not especially.
17:47 <Schism> Then, the original soup was pretty bland in the first place, so it's hard to say.
17:48 <DashedRainbows> Good that Thelema5 is feeling better though. I figured since you can type today...
17:49 <Stormspark> see, that's one weird thing about me. I don't fangasm over the voice actors showing up in other stuff. At most it'll be like "ok I guess that was a sort of neat meta reference"
17:50 <Schism> Well, their appearance in DuckTales was kind of an obvious nod.
17:50 <Stormspark> I know
17:50 <Stormspark> it just didn't really have an efect on me
17:50 <Schism> Rather akin to Q showing up and being a delightfully chaotic reality warper.
17:50 <Stormspark> other than "har har"
17:51 <Stormspark> I still think it was funny, because John de Lancie said he spent something like 4 hours on that episode. 2 reading the script the night before, 2 hours recording the next day, then promptly forgot about it
17:51 *** Joins: Rawr (Rawr@Pony-n63hst.fidnet.com)
17:51 <Stormspark> until he was inundated with emails, and his wife was like "oh, that was that little girls show" "THESE EMAILS ARE NOT FROM LITTLE GIRLS"
17:52 <Thelema5> Heh
17:53 <DashedRainbows> This shows for little girls?!
17:53 <Stormspark> lol
17:53 <Stormspark> that's what he and his wife thought, he had no idea what it even was. It was just a minor voice role to him
17:53 <Stormspark> go in, record for 2 hours, leave, forget about it, go onto next project
17:54 <Schism> And then all of a sudden, he had the freakin' panopticon focused on him.
17:54 <Stormspark> honestly, I'd say...early 20's is the minimum age to realy "get" everything
17:54 <Stormspark> sure, for the most part it's family friendly, there isn't much overt stuff that's inappropriate for kids (usually)
17:54 <Stormspark> at lesat, not overtly
17:55 <Schism> That's what I call a 'family' show, one where there are as many nods for the parents and older viewers as there are for the younger audience.
17:55 <Stormspark> see there isn't really anything "for" the younger audience, they just try to keep it (relatively) inoffensive to them
17:55 <Schism> Eh, your standard fight-monsters-solve-problems-moral-of-the-day thing works there.
17:55 <Schism> Stormspark, you may have heard about this little family show called 'Animaniacs'.
17:55 <Stormspark> I have seen more than a couple "how in 17 kinds of HELL did they get that past the censors?" moments
17:56 <Stormspark> haha yeah I remember that
17:56 <Stormspark> I remember a couple points (usually in season 5 and later) where I see something and I was like, wow, did I really just see what I thought I saw? *backs up* Um, yep. Wow, how the hell did that get past the censors?
17:56 <Schism> Yeah, I think the same applies here. Lots of stuff for the kids to giggle at, some nods here and there to the older audience.
17:56 <Stormspark> yeah
17:57 <Stormspark> the adult stuff is taking the forefront more and more and not always being subtle like it was in the past though
17:57 * Thelema5 eyes grannies gone wild
17:57 <Schism> Mm, that is a concern. It can either float that way, or towards something horrific like Pinky, Elmira and the Brain.
17:57 <Schism> Well, horrific either way, that is.
17:57 <Stormspark> Oh I don't mind the adult stuff being focused on more
17:58 <Stormspark> honestly, I think the way they're doing it makes it even more mature than shows that have gratuitous sex and violence
17:58 <Stormspark> gratuitous sex and violence may be "adult" but it is usually NOT mature
17:58 <Stormspark> unless it's something like Silence of the Lambs
18:00 <Schism> You could certainly say that a show called Stephen Universe is also quite mature.
18:00 <Schism> s/called/like/
18:01 <Thelema5> I think SU tackles some maturish themes, but there's not so much overt content

18:06 <Stormspark> that last epsiode was Fridge Brilliance: The Episode
18:06 <Stormspark> the ending seemed to underwhelming
18:06 <Stormspark> until I thought about it later
18:07 <Stormspark> *so
18:07 <Stormspark> then it's like...wow, it makes 100% perfect sense
18:11 <Thelema5> You mean A Single Pale Rose?
18:12 <Stormspark> no, Mean 6
18:12 <Thelema5> Ah, yeah, I thought it was pretty lame
18:12 <Stormspark> See, that's what I thought when it ended
18:12 <Stormspark> but then I thought about it
18:12 <Stormspark> and now I think it's brilliant

18:51 <Stormspark> lol
18:52 <Stormspark> hm, come to think of it
18:52 <Stormspark> have we ever seen any pegasi wingslap someone?
18:52 <Stormspark> they certainly could

18:59 <SunsetShimmer> During the chat in the throne room, forgotten friendship
18:59 <Stormspark> I mean in canon
18:59 <Stormspark> lol
19:00 <SunsetShimmer> Its still canon
19:00 <Stormspark> eh, season 7 finale contradicted it majorly in two ways, on purpose, in ways that took extra effort vs leaving passive references in
19:00 <SunsetShimmer> Not really though
19:01 <SunsetShimmer> Because starswirl totally banished sirens during.
19:01 <Stormspark> yes really
19:01 <SunsetShimmer> Its a nice referencial callback
19:01 <Stormspark> But 1) it happened ina totally different contradictory way, and 2) Twilight said she had never encountered dimensional portals before, it was a totally new concept to her
19:02 <SunsetShimmer> Ehhh...I dont think it was phrased that way
19:02 <Stormspark> also 3) In all scenes in the castle, the mirror doesn't exist. They went to extra effort to remove it from anything in the series, like it was never there
19:02 <Stormspark> it's never been there
19:02 * SunsetShimmer rolls eyez
19:02 <Stormspark> don't get me wrong, I like Sunset's design in a "she'd make a neat OC" way, but I don't consider her canon
19:02 <SunsetShimmer> I do and thaaaats all I gots to say on that :p
19:03 <SunsetShimmer> She is considered side canon
19:03 <SunsetShimmer> Not affecting the show but it happened. As per writer considerations and statements
19:05 <Stormspark> actions speak louder than words :P

19:12 <Schism> Especially when you have 70% humidity on a freakin' 100-degree day.
19:12 <Stormspark> I can get up and walk around outside int he 90's with humidity without even sweating
19:12 <Stormspark> it's odd
19:12 <Stormspark> I never used to have heat resistance
19:12 <Stormspark> 75 used to make me feel ill
19:12 <ADragonDreaming> ...I'm not sure that's a good thing.
19:13 <Stormspark> no, I mean, I don't even get hot. It's like the heat doesn't stick to me
19:13 <Stormspark> I know what heatstroke is like, I'm nowhere even close to that
19:13 <Stormspark> I don't even feel uncomfortable
19:14 <Schism> I guess we can gain and lose perks depending on environmental factors. The Archive should have a list for that, so we can minmax appropriately, but I hear they charge an arm and a leg.

Gold and electrum plating were common additions to low-grade iron, or even cheap brass, especially among Unicornia nobility. There is another reason for this, though. When a flock of pegasi attack from the sky, it helps if
19:41 <Schism> your armour can blind them. In turn, most battles were fought during storms for some time..."

22:40 <Stormspark> but for current status yes
22:40 <LibrarianofHope> OwO
22:42 <LibrarianofHope> Two seasons after movie?
22:42 <LibrarianofHope> I left that long?
22:42 <Stormspark> no
22:42 <Stormspark> movie happens between 7-8
22:42 <LibrarianofHope> Ahh
22:43 <LibrarianofHope> That makes sense
22:43 <LibrarianofHope> Is 9 confirmed?
22:43 <Stormspark> yep
22:43 <LibrarianofHope> Yay
22:43 <Stormspark> and there are rumors that 10 may also be confirmed, but as of right now it's just rumor
22:44 <Tempest-Shadow> 10 would be a neater number to end on
22:45 <LibrarianofHope> And then what?
22:45 <LibrarianofHope> No more bronies?
22:46 <Tempest-Shadow> Thats not how fandoms work
22:47 <LibrarianofHope> I know, but it would suffer
22:47 <Stormspark> no it wouldn't
22:47 <Stormspark> the fandom is going to continue for decades at the very minimum
22:47 <Stormspark> bronycon is confirmed for up to 2025 regardless of the show
22:47 <LibrarianofHope> OwO
22:47 <Stormspark> probably longer than that
22:47 <Stormspark> they just only plan that far in advance
22:48 <Stormspark> I mean, it's already planned out, booked, etc, up to 2025
22:48 <LibrarianofHope> Neat
22:49 <LibrarianofHope> I did hear bout a reebot
22:49 <LibrarianofHope> It was long ago
22:49 <Tempest-Shadow> Concept art
22:49 <Tempest-Shadow> Honestly we only have half the story - liable to change
22:50 <LibrarianofHope> But we would need another faust level writer no?
22:51 <LibrarianofHope> Least for the start
22:51 <Tempest-Shadow> I dont cherish faust over everything
22:52 <LibrarianofHope> I mean it was her who started it , her seed
22:53 <LibrarianofHope> It did grew up despite her leaving
22:53 <LibrarianofHope> But she is the mother of this fandom so to speak

23:02 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: My Little Pony Crochet Kit Appears on Amazon [ http://tinyurl.com/y9fkwt73 ]
23:02 <Stormspark> sort of
23:02 <Stormspark> she did NOT do it alone
23:03 <Stormspark> and they actually shot down a lot of her ideas
23:03 <Stormspark> if she had gotten her way, she wanted them to be completely equine, as in actually looking like horses
23:03 <Stormspark> that was shot down by everyone else
23:03 <Stormspark> don't get me wrong, she is very talented and I respect her, but she did not create the show by herself. In fact, I think it's only gotten better since she left

23:05 <LibrarianofHope> I didnt know that
23:05 <Stormspark> I actually just found out about that recently. If they had gone with actual horse look, as opposed to the hybrid almost chimera-like creatures we have with a lot of feline features, I wouldn't have ever liked it
23:06 <LibrarianofHope> Who designed the pony look then?
23:06 <Stormspark> it works too, the non-equine features they have, it makes sense for them to have based on the world they live in
23:06 <Stormspark> a lot of people
23:06 <Stormspark> don't get me wrong, Lauren was involved, but it was a big team of people
23:07 <Stormspark> Jayson Thiessen was heavily involved from the very beginning also, he gets just as much credit as Lauren
23:08 <Tempest-Shadow> Considering she hasnt been around since season 2, they can probably figure things out from here
23:08 <Stormspark> I do agree about one thing though - I don't think I'll be interested in a reboot
23:08 <Stormspark> ESPECIALLY if they reuse the same names - it will make them feel like impersonations
23:09 <Tempest-Shadow> I'd give it an episode or 2 to win me over
23:09 <Stormspark> (noone cared about G4 reusing names because the previous "characters" they borrowed the names from weren't really even characters, they had zero characterization or development)
23:09 <Stormspark> if they are going to make a new world, they should have new characters, new names
23:09 <Stormspark> make it its own thing
23:09 <LibrarianofHope> They had to link it
23:10 <LibrarianofHope> It was meant as a commercial first, show second
23:10 <Stormspark> yeah, if they reuse the same characters and just make "new" versions of them, I have a feeling that will be its downfall
23:10 <Stormspark> they won't be able to capture lightning in a bottle a second time
23:10 <LibrarianofHope> Nope
23:10 <Stormspark> I mean I'll probably check it out
23:10 <Stormspark> but I don't think it will have the magic this one had
23:10 <LibrarianofHope> Tricky problem
23:11 <Stormspark> FIM is more than the sum of its parts, by a LOT
23:11 <Stormspark> it took what was frankly a dumb concept, and made it work
23:11 <LibrarianofHope> Be back in a bit
23:11 <LibrarianofHope> Nap time

23:21 <ADragonDreaming> I wouldn't say that the previous generations had zero characterization or development.
23:22 <ADragonDreaming> Zero indicates they were literally just blank slates ... which is not the case if you actually watch some of the previous generation stuff.
23:23 <ADragonDreaming> The reason a significant portion of the population didn't care about the re-using of names is because the core demo was too young at inception to have been exposed to the previous generations
23:23 <ADragonDreaming> and the surprise demo had never bothered with the previous generations.
23:24 <ADragonDreaming> I have spoken to a couple people who remembered Generation 1, and loved it, and weren't exactly into Generation 4 because of this.
23:24 <ADragonDreaming> The first generation was actually quite good, for it's time.
23:24 <ADragonDreaming> The subsequent ones ... your mileage may vary.
